I need help with MS Paint

When I open MS Paint, I aways get this white box that I can't ever figure out how to resize.

Maybe it is the wrong program to use for this but I often capture screenshots of my desktop, paste them into Paint and save them as a JPG so I can post them online. I do this primarily for feedback from members of a poker forum. I have a program that reads the hand histories that are saved on my computer and the members will look at my stats and tell me if I am playing well. Like, "You don't raise enough", "you fold the river too much, etc..." sometimes the feedback is positive but this is the Internet you know, LOL.

Here is what I want to post this morning, it is results since the first of January. I have been getting really lucky the last week or two so don't get excited, this will change as I play more hands.

I want to get rid of all that white at the bottom and I can't figure it out and Google has not been my friend.

Maybe I need a different program. I need some help.

Click outside the image, then drag the little blue box in the corner to where you want it.

Also, defend your blinds less.

The resize points can be tough to see, but they are there
 
I use Paint a lot for this too. I prefer to cut out the part I want and re-paste it into a new Paint window. Click on the Select Icon at the top left of the Paint window. Click and drag a box around the part you want to keep. Hit Ctrl+X to cut it out... Ctrl+N to open a new window... Click no to the save window then Ctrl+V to paste it back in... then save it. You can use Image->Attributes to change the size of the window but if you use a small default window the Paste function will automatically make it big enough to fit. I can actually do this faster than I can use the re-size points.

I just find the re-size points hard to work with but maybe all it takes is practice. :)
 
How in the world have I overlooked those resize points all these years?

They are clear as a bell now.

Thanks guys.
